Chapter 3 – Awakening past memories
Wang Xiong had awoken!
As he opened his eyes, his face immediately twisted to give out such a terrifying expression. Both eyes discharged an intensely murderous and limitless sense of grief.
“Oooh!”
Suddenly, the wolf pack retreated in panic for twenty feet before they stopped to look frightenedly toward Wang Xiong. Those wolves that were biting on those soldiers’ corpses also had their furs stand up all of a sudden and they all stopped.
“Emperor, for you I’ve slashed twenty eight of his most adept soldiers and broken the Bagua furnace in the Tushita palace. I have even burned ten miles of his peach garden and tore alive the traitor divine emperor right in the Ling Xiao palace. Emperor, my lover, you shall not close your eyes, no ~~~~!” Wang Xiong gave out a grieving wail.
“Hooh!”
Suddenly, as Wang Xiong sat up, the wolves all directions became terrified at once and retreated quickly even a further distance before they stopped.
At the foot of Qiyun mountain.
All those was looking at the images had shown a disbelieving expression.
It was because as the ninth-ranked Tianyan was in this state, though everyone could look at the images inside Sirius Cave, none could hear any sound so they couldn’t know what Wang Xiong had said.
“Wang Xiong’s face twisted like that like he was having nightmares?” Zhou Chi had a strange expression on his face.
“Those wolves are so afraid to confront Wang Xiong, and continuously backed away. Is it true that Wang Xiong’s body has such a huge murderous intense?” The Fourth prince frowned as he said.
“Zhou High Lady, is there no way to bring people in, or to save my young master out?” Wang Zhongquan said expectingly.
“No way. Except for if the wolves charged forward to bite and he was on the verge of death, the ninth-ranked Tianyan could shoot out a beam to kill the Wolf King and scared those wolves to save him once.” Zhou Tianyin explained.
“Appreciate it Zhou High Lady!” Wang Zhongquan said gratefully.
In Sirius Cave, the wolf pack became more terrifying and bared their teeth. Yet they dared not to come closer.
Wang Xiong suddenly sat up and discovered the strange situation before his eyes.
“My training, no? Where’s this place? The Emperor is not here? So I am?” Wang Xiong looked at both his hands with surprise.
The moment he saw both youthful arms, Wang Xiong was shocked: “This is not my body, no! So I borrowed a body to resurrect?”
“Ow!”
All at once, numerous memories filled up Wang Xiong’s mind in a blink.
“No, this is not reincarnation. I have the memories of this body. So have I been moving on to the next life? Moreover, this is no longer the body of a tiger demon, but a human? I am Wang Xiong and my past memories have been awoken?” Wang Xiong furrowed.
Slowly closing his eyes. Wang Xiong felt his body for a moment and then, between his eyebrows there suddenly appeared a cherry blossom.
Outside world.
“That cherry blossom birthmark, it appears again? Isn’t it a birthmark? Why is it sometimes there, sometimes not there?” Zhou Chi was surprised.
“Wang Zhongquan, so what this cherry blossom birthmark between Wang Xiong’s eyebrows really is?” The Fourth prince was also perplexed.
What is this Cherry blossom birthmark? Even Wang Zhongquan did not know. Yet, this had been more affirming that the person there was his young master. Moreover, the young master had broken away the suppression of the cherry blossom birthmark.
“That, should be some talisman?” Zhou Tianyin said in low voice.
“Talisman?” Everyone was confused.
Indeed in the images, Wang Xiong gently touched toward the cherry blossom between his eyebrows and plucked it. That cherry blossom then came off and fell right into Wang Xiong’s hand. It was actually a hair band with cherry blossom color.
Hair band?
Every one outside showed a stunned expression. It was indeed a talisman.
As Wang Xiong was looking at the hairband in his hand, his eyes wet: “Emperor, I used think this “God-binding band” was just the thought that you preserved for me before you died, yet it also unexpectedly helped protect my soul from the purification of the Six paths of Reincarnation cycles and brought with it the reincarnated memories. Even though my nature had been sealed for seventeen years long which made me appear dim-witted and looked down by people, even getting tricked to this deadly location. It has kept my soul completely and with it the reincarnated memories, but …you?”
Wang Xiong reminisced while looking at the God-binding band, and he couldn’t help but remembering a much-beloved face. The more he thought, the more he felt miserable and uncomfortable. He could only feel his internal organs burning up.
“Puff!”
A spat of fresh blood came out from Wang Xiong’s mouth.
The wolves from everywhere saw that opportunity and were so eager to charge forward again.
“Haha, I would forget things soon with no more memory. But now, having these memories really causes me more pain. Emperor, do you know how much I miss you?” Wang Xiong said miserably.
“Roar!”
The Wolf King gave out a low growl, seemingly wanting to plunge forward.
This low growl cut Wang Xiong’s train of thoughts. He looked up toward those wolves rushing forward from all directions with such coldness.
As the soul from Wang Xiong’s previous past had undone the seal, the soul force just kept increasing incessantly. In these cold eyes, there was a ray of soul force, a huge wave of murderous intent.
This murderous intent was hundreds of times more than when he was unconscious. It brought such huge heaven-and-earth slaughtering force from his past life. In a short moment, the wolf pack lost their courage and crashed down onto the ground, even the Wolf King. All of them lay down on the ground, unmoving.
From outside, all everyone could see was that Wang Xiong simply stood up. However, in those wolves’ eyes, under that murderous aura, Wang Xiong was no longer a human, but the King of all animals, a hungry demonic tiger.
As this hungry tiger stood up, its eyes emitted a vicious aura while looking coldly down to the wolves as if picking out which to eat. Facing with the King of All Animals about to eat them, just like that the wolves couldn’t have any more fighting thought; all they could do was to go “ooh ooh” like begging for their lives.
“It’s so impossible. Why were those wolves so afraid of Wang Xiong like that? Wang Xiong just stood up and they just fell all down like jelly?” Zhou Chi stared in disbelief.
Zhou Tianyin, Wang Zhongquan and the Fourth prince were all very surprised.
Wang Xiong even lost all of his training, yet the viciously murderous aura as the Tiger King from his past life was still here in his soul. How could these normal blue wolves resist against the might of a sick tiger with a royal aura?
“Roar!” At this moment, an earth-shattering tiger’s roar suddenly came.
From inside the forest, there was suddenly another huge and spectacular tiger that seemed to be twenty feet long.
On the forehead of the huge tiger that just appeared on top of the rock piles, there was a huge word “King”. It was strangely vicious as it gave out another loud roar that caused the wolves to freeze.
“Another tiger?” The wolves must have felt such an unparalleled sorrow.
The appearance of this huge and spectacular tiger also caused those from outside to breath out in relief.
“I even thought Wang Xiong scared those wolves onto the ground, yet it’s from this demon tiger. I’ve already told you that how could such a sickened Wang Xiong scare those wolves?” Zhou Chi jeered.
As Zhou Chi said so, all nodded their head in agreement that obviously they couldn’t trust Wang Xiong’s ability.
“This powerful tiger, surrounded by hundreds of knife-sharp wind and rocks flying all around the places. Yet it has such large gas container, so it must be a demon tiger to be able to enter the Wu Zong realm!” The Fourth prince squinted.
“Wu Zong realm?” Wang Zhongquan’s expression changed dramatically.
“Yes true, must be the first level of Wu Zong realm. Wang Xiong was just reaching the first level of Qihai realm, about one realm apart. So this time, Wang Xiong will be facing graver danger!” The Fourth prince’s eyes just beamed with a sense of satisfaction.
Zhou High Lady, my young master is facing with grave danger before our eyes. This couldn’t wait, please summon Tianyan to kill the demon tiger and save our master!” Wang Zhongquan said with scare.
“Useless, a soul-force concentrated shot from Tianyan could kill the tiger yet those wolves would again be heading to Wang Xiong. It's unable to save him!” The Fourth prince showed a satisfied smile.
“Even though I could direct Tianyan of Zhou family, the power summoned isn’t that much. That is the demon tiger of Wu Zong, at most it could just be heavily wounded!” Zhou Tianyin shook her head and sighed.
“This time Wang Xiong would be dead for sure!” Zhou Chi shook his head.
In the images, as the demon tiger had just appeared, he stared intensely at Wang Xiong, basically showing no concern toward the wolf pack.
Wang Xiong turned his head and looked at the demon tiger; in his eyes, there appeared a fleeting sense of closeness.
“Who are you? How come from faraway, there was a wave of tiger’s murderous spirit all over? Say it!” The tiger glared as strong winds danced around its body.
The demon tiger of Wu Zong realm had opened its mouth to talk.
Wang Xiong’s pupil contracted fiercely as if it was transforming into the eyes of tiger. In his mouth there came a strong and loud tiger roar.
“Roar ~~~~~!”
The roar wasn’t too loud, and not much hurricane surrounded.
Yet inside the demon tiger’s ear, it seemed like huge thunder rumbling in its head. In this roar, there seemed to be an uncertain wave of heavenly force with such large impact to the spiritual senses of the demon tiger. Impacted by this roar, the demon tiger seemed to see tens to thousands of tigers standing behind Wang Xiong, and all seemed to stared at it.
“Vishuddha chakra?” Heavenly Tiger’s Godly Sound?” The demon tiger was stunned.
“Thump!”
The demon tiger lowered down on the ground and looked at Wang Xiong with extreme fright.
“Elder, this little cub has offended you, please forgive me!” The demon tiger immediately lied flat on the ground trying to beg for mercy from Wang Xiong.
The demon tiger lied flat on the ground?
Outside, as Zhou Tianyin was about to carry out her move, she stopped suddenly.
Zhou Chi rolled his eyes so much it seemed to pop out.
“Impossible. Has the demon tiger gotten sick? Why did it not eat Wang Xiong?” There was a frustration on the face of the Fourth prince.
Only Wang Zhongquan showed a face of surprise with delight.
No matter if the demon tiger was subdued under Wang Xiong, from its attitude this moment, it seemed Wang Xiong was safe.
Wang Xiong slowly walked forward toward the demon tiger.
“Elder please forgive me!” The demon tiger said miserably.
Heavenly Tiger’s Godly Sound could only be carried out by the strong elders in the Tiger clan. Thus even Heavenly Tiger’s Godly Sound of the person in front might be extremely weak, yet facing the existence of ranking in the clan, the demon tiger didn’t dare to go out of control.
Wang Xiong’s body then was still a bit weak. He slowly walked towards the demon tiger’s face which no longer has a powerful expression.
Both the wolf pack and people from outside looked closely yet still couldn’t know why Wang Xiong would walk in front of the demon tiger.
“What’s your name?” Wang Xiong opened to talk.
“Juque, sir!” The demon tiger said respectfully.
“From now on, please be my ride for the time being!” Wang Xiong said in low voice.
“Ah? Elder… Yeah!” the demon tiger was a bit reluctant, but he dared not to offend.
Wang Xiong took this chance to jump on the demon tiger.
The demon tiger then stood up. Wang Xiong looked down from above at the group of wolves.
At the moment, the demon tiger appeared extremely obedient. No matter how Wang Xiong sat, even very comfortably, it was also very careful with its back.
As the tiger-riding images appeared, everyone from outside was stunned. This wasn’t right?
“This is impossible! Wang Zhongquan, does your young master know that demon tiger?” The Fourth prince glared at Wang Zhongquan.
Basically, there was no way to explain. The demon tiger just moments ago appeared so vicious and aggressive; after looking at Wang Xiong, it suddenly became so obedient as a good horse.
“This is the Wang Xiong, so dumb and weak, that you used to tell to me about?” Zhou Tianyin looked toward Zhou Chi.
Zhou Tianyin, though she had a marriage agreement with Wang Xiong, had never met him. In her family, no one dared to say anything about this future son-in-law. Only Zhou Chi looked down much on Wang Xiong and never stopped talking bad about Wang Xiong with Zhou Tianyin.
Wang Xiong so dumb and weak, stupid like a pig, so skinny he couldn’t stand. These were all saying from Zhou Chi.
Yet, such a person like this, who could make the demon tiger of Wu Zong realm kneel down as a riding pet, couldn’t make it like that?
“Ack… I… him… I also don’t know now!” Zhou Chi also looked lazily in the images.
Those from outside have been scared to madness.
Inside the Sirius Cave, Wang Xiong rode on the back of the demon tiger and looked at the wolf, saying: “Bring the wolves, we’ll leave this place first!”
“Yes!” The demon tiger responded
The demon tiger kept staring as the Wolf King growling with anger and ordered it not to be rude. The leader of the wolf pack stood up, and slowly followed the demon tiger out of Sirius Cave.
The demon tiger travelled in front, with Wang Xiong on his back.
As he was riding, Wang Xiong turned his head with cold eyes to look at the sky.
With this glance, Zhou Tianyin from outside felt a chill from inside and outside of her body.
“Impossible, has he discovered the ninth-ranked Tianyan? This is the way like God Killing holy wind!” Zhou Tianyin had in her tone a sense of disbelief.
Even though Tianyan shot a purple light into Sirius Cave, this line of light was too small to track. Normal people basically couldn’t feel this, and this was even with a hindering sandstorm barrier. Yet a glance from Wang Xiong, and his naive expression, had made Zhou Tianyin believe that he knew.
“Coincidence, definitely coincidence!” Zhou Tianyin said to herself.
“Whoosh!”
The ninth-ranked Tianyan in the sky suddenly closed its eye, became the dark clouds and then slowly disappeared without a trace.
“Sister, where’s the Tianyan?” Zhou Chi said surprised.
“The ninth-ranked Tianyan, in one whole day we could only open it within the duration of a burning incense. It’s time!” Zhou Tianyin shook her head.
“Please Zhou High Lady, inspect on whereabouts of the young master, and make sure the young master stays safe!” Wang Zhongquan repeated again the rituals.
Zhou Tianyin’s face turned tough toward Wang Zhongquan, before she eventually turned toward the scene.
